In Prep we have started a new Unit of Inquiry, ‘Who We Are’.  Our central idea is ‘Many people teach us how to be healthy and safe’.  The students have been involved in many fun activities to explore our new topic.

Each grade has made a class book ‘I feel safe when….’.  Here are some of the sentences that the Prep students created for their books.

I feel safe when I’m playing with my friends at school. 

I feel safe when I am playing chess with my Nanna and Grandpa. 

I feel safe when my Mum and Dad take me to the park with my big sister.

I feel safe when my Dad reads me a story at bedtime.

I feel safe when I am cuddling my dogs.

The Prep students have also worked collaboratively with a classmate to produce a poster about ways we can keep ourselves healthy.  We brainstormed together and children came up with so many great ideas. 

Some suggestions included:

Brushing our teeth, washing our bodies, eating healthy foods such as fruit and vegetables, drinking lots of water, exercising and meditating.
